Can't do the legal work sorry. But here is some free advice...
I'm not sure Australian copyright exceptions are anything to model best practice on.
We are desperately trying to reform them.
A lot of good work has been done recently on this and is contained in the reports from the
Australian Law Reform Commission which did an 18 month review of copyright exceptions in
Australia.
The final report recommends US style fair use or failing that fair dealing exceptions.
The discussion paper gives a very good overview of all the problems that exist with
current exceptions and why reform is needed.
It's all online along with submissions which are also helpful for the arguments for OA
here

Unfortunately the whole thing got stalled for a few years so nothing has happened. Reviews
are underway again though so the merry-go-round continues.
Cheers

I don't need the money, and wouldn't want to do the full legal analysis but would
be happy to offer a second opinion on the law as it currently stands in the UK.

Hi gang,
I need your help, but this time I come offering money :)
In Communia we are putting together best case scenarios for copyright
exceptions. Basically what would be the absolute best reform that
could happen from a public domain perspective.
We have decided to feature Freedom of Panorama and for this we need
someone to chose the country with the most beneficial exception (I
believe Austria and the UK check the most boxes) and write 5-6 pages
on it, including a legal analysis and real-life examples. Reward: €
450 plus eternal fame in copyright reformist circles.
Thanks!
Dimi
